Chapter 3: The Final Chapter Part I
Radio Free Roscoe
I laid on my bed, replaying the tragic events of this afternoon's collision with Travis. It was 3:15 pm school had let out a little while ago at 3:10, I decided to call Lily, and have her over for a little while
"Hello" I very sick Lily came to the door
"Lily? You look awful"
"I know, I haven't been feeling oh so grand these past days" she said yawning.
"Lily... I have to come out and say it... I." I was interrupted.
"Like me? You already told me Ray, and I can't just break things off with Travis, so you can pine over me." She said with an angry tone.
"No, that wasn't what I was going to say"
"Oh I'm so sorry for cutting you off, go on"
"Lily, I think you have an eating disorder"
"WHAT?!? Who in their right mind would give you such and idea!" she asked quite startled.
"You and Travis" I said as I sat down on m bed, Lily sat down as well
"ME?!?" she said, apparently forgetting I had also said "Travis"
"Yea, your jeans they were pretty loose today, and you barely ate lunch, then you went straight to the bathroom, I know an awful lot about Bulimia Lily, I stole one of Travis' books on it. Lily I am worried"
Lily looked like she hadn't heard a word I said, she just stared into the wall like it was an escape from here. She didn't cry, Lily was too tough for tears, but I knew I was right about the eating thing. Lily leaned over and hugged me. I was not expecting it at all, I just let her hug me, her grip was as if she let go of me she would die, I was starting to loose air from her death grip, I didn't say anything though.
Lily finally let go, "You were right, I did go to the bathroom after lunch, and yes I did throw up, but I feel like Travis won't like me anymore, if I gain a pound. I feel so imperfect around him. He has every girl after him, I only have two boys after me, it tells you something, I should never feel this way, but I do, and I can't stop doing this" she finished without letting a single tear fall from her eye.
"If he makes you feel imperfect, then you don't need him, you deserve someone who will make you feel special and not make you feel like you need to lose weight or whatever to gain his love" I finished.
"You are real sweet Ray, but he doesn't do it on purpose, I feel like he's too good for me almost. He would freak if he ever heard me say this, though"
"Lily, you two are very good together, I know Travis has many girls after him, but he chose you, which means something. He chose the most beautiful girl that he wanted... and he got her... you." I said, Lily had a huge smile on her face.
"Thank you Ray, I will try to stop, try is keyword. But could you promise me something?" She questioned
"Yes Anything Lily"
"Promise that you will always be right there to talk no matter what, I would die if I ever lost you"
"I Promise Lily, I will be there for you anytime, well maybe not at like 2 am, because I need my sleep-"I got cut off by a swift punch landing on my left shoulder. "Owww, ok 2 am it is!" I said, making Lily laugh and hug me goodbye.
"Thank you so much Ray, I love you for it" she said
"Your welcome, you can always talk to me, even when you need cheering up, I would love to make a fool of myself for you to laugh." Lily laughed slightly, and got up from my bed and left my room.
"Ok, now off to Audrey's for Math!" I said as I gathered my stuff and left my room.
"Mom, MOOOM" I shouted.
"Yes, Raymond?" My mom yelled back.
"I'm going out with a friend to study, won't be back until about 6 or so"
"Okay, who?"
"Ummm Audrey"
"Whose Audrey?" she asked returning from wherever she had been before
"My friend, that Travis used to date, she is doing really well in Math, and she agreed to help me out, if I needed it. I do now, so I'll call you when I'm on my way back."
"Okay, Dinner is at 6:30, let me know if you won't be here for it"
"I told you I would be back by 6"
"Well just in case your studying takes a bit longer"
I looked at her oddly, did she think I was interested in Audrey? Oh well, can't say anything now it was 3:45 and I had to get there soon.
"Right. Umm Be Back Later" I said as I left and made my way towards mickey's with backpack in hand.
